​Online survey for digital platform workers

​Online survey for digital platform workers

​​Are you working for a digital platform offering driving, delivery, support or care services?​

About the study

​​This research project is about the health and wellbeing of people who use digital platforms to gain work in the transport/delivery and care/support industries in Australia. Examples of digital platforms include Uber and Mable but there are also many other online platforms that connect workers with people who might need transport, something delivered, or who need personal help at home.

​If you are currently undertaking, or have recently undertaken, platform work across any digital platform(s) that provide you with work opportunities related to transport/delivery or personal care in Australia, we invite you complete an online survey that will take about 15 minutes to complete.  

​You can complete the survey confidentially and go into the draw to win one of ten $100 gift cards.​
